I got mine last week. Besides emudeck just not working, it's really good. Everything i like runs well on it. Even though I have my PC in front of me, I still like using my deck.
I got a chinkshit instead, one of the retroid pockets.already have my old PC hooked up to my TV as a home media thing, and 90% of the games I play will run on that 1080p mid-high.for when I'm out of the house, idc too much about what Im playing. the retroid can run stardew valley and pokemon, which is enough for me. I think $100 was too much for the 4gb classic retroid pocket, but whatever. Still cheaper and smaller than steam deck.
>>719425447There can't be 2 of us. Also why the fuck are KH fans like this?
>>719425251Apollo/Sunshine is a great tool if.you're just using it like that
>>719425519I dont think id ever stream from my deck to PC. Id rather just game on the PC. I've never had a smooth time using streaming for gaming. No idea why the industry is pushing it.
I want to suck a cock so bad but I need to stop getting to horny because I keep gifting my friends games lol
Why do blacks and morbidly obese homosexuals like kingdom hearts so much? And just square enix in general, really. Its very odd.
>>719425251WHY are you black???
>>719426191Japanese action games are fun. No western games can really hold up to the action they put out. Nothing in the west is close to nioh 2 or even KH 2 boss battles.
>>719425716I was of the same idea until Apollo came outGame changing
>>719426393>Japanese action games are funThere is nothing fun about kingdom hearts and id unironically rather roll across a bed of hot coals than play it again. Its one of those games where I genuinely assume someone is severely mentally retarded and not worth listening to if they like it.
>>719426440Ill look into that then. If we both thought the same way, then I might be missing out. What do you like about apollo?
>>719426634>filtered by deep jungle and wonderland
>>719425251I considered it when they restocked the OLED a few months ago but decided I'd just wait for the Steamdeck 2 and play through my Switch backlog and steam games that wouldn't run well on a Steamdeck instead.
>>719426641It creates a virtual display with the exact specs of the display you're using. and it's just straight up faster than old moonlight
Based, get emudeck or another emulation package on your steamdeck while you're at it and use CDRomance to get the files. I love my deck for emulating old hand held games and previous gen games. You can get it all on steam's launcher too. It's objectively the perfect emulation handheld and mobile pc gaming device. You can also emulate newer stuff like switch games but I haven't bothered yet.
>>719427027>deck 2Wouldn't that be earliest 2028? You dont think you'd get your money's worth if you got one today?>>719427284Hell yeah that sounds great imma check it out. >>719427370I installed emudeck and steam from manager yesterday. I put my all bios and roms into the right places. My rom's showed up once in dolphin but they aren't there anymore. I gotta give it another try, I'm 99% of the way there the last 1% is throwing me off. No idea what to do
Emudeck does work, reinstall it
>>719425251>Brown handschecks out.
>>719425251ATTENTION GAMERSan nword other than Saucy is posting here
>>719425251Reinstall emudeck, once it works the Deck becomes the only console you need
>>719427592Its been a minute so I'll defer to the install instructions from retro gaming. Check the subreddit for it and alternatively check different locations for the files. I don't use MGBA to access my games, I just open retroarch and everything pops up there. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=89-LRCob6H8
>>719425251Im waiting for steam deck pro with a better screen
>>719427620>>719427891I will try reinstalling it now. I have 200GB of roms on my SD card. I believe in emudeck
>>719425251>>719425512
>>719428078It's def an error within steamdeck I have all my roms on my sd card too. Install emudeck on the internal storage and keep the game on the sd.
>>719425251to all fellow steam deck users, grab the megaman humble bundle on rn, playing all the megamans and battlenetworks while waiting for silksong is peak comfyi hope silksong runs at 90fps on deck as well
>>719428235You beautiful son of a bitch that worked
>>719425251Use the gyro
>>719428008THANK YOU for this fuckin video man. I had to do some reset of SRM and choose the path for the roms in there. fuckIng hell thanks>>719428235I also had to do this. I love you
Does total war run well on them?
buck status?
>>719429964https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=44viAih-qDI&pp=ygUUdG90YWwgd2FyIHN0ZWFtIGRlY2s%3DThis one?
>>719429640Not a problem, have fun!
>>719425251Wish more anons would post pics like thatExcept with a bulge or something
>people said it can run emulate ps2 games fineBLACK, GTA SA, Killzone and other games run like shit on pcsx2
>>719430384OooofTrack pads don’t work too well for micromanaging battles from looks of itShame really as I only really play total war
>>719425251Imagine being black and autisticPick a struggle, nigga
>>719425251It's too big and the battery sucks, as soon as Valve makes an ARM deck mini with good battery life, I'm in
>>719430961The GTA games are some of the easiest to emulate. You're doing something wrong.
I get a ton of use out of mine
>>719433613I just bought Bakeru, it's $12 on steam right now
>>719433613How does E33 play on it? Want to play it but I'm afraid it's gonna be ass on deck's specs.
I sold mine since It had started to collect dust I used it to stream from my PC but I guess that wasn't enough to convince me to keep it
>>719433741It's definitely not my preferred way to play it but it's good for cleaning up exploration of an area and grinding pictos when I'm away from my desk. If you do go that route, there's a launch optionSteamDeck=0 %command%Which will give you the full suite of settings to play with. You can get it looking decent for sure, but it is still an Unreal Engine 5 game at the end of the day>>719433685Have fun! I always have an appetite for that kind of stage based 3D action platformer. Kind of reminds me of Gurumin in some ways
>>719433613Me too, man. I've put nearly 200 hrs into Fallout 4 over the past 2 months, and lately my wife and I have been playing It Takes Two. Haven't fully decided what I'll play from my backlog next. Silksong might derail me a little.>>719429640Git gud at googling, brother. The Deck has a pretty dedicated community, so as long as you aren't too far off the beaten trail, someone has the answer you need.
>>719425251>Besides emudeck just not workingWorks on my machine.
>>719426440>ApolloI've used Sunshine forever now, what exactly is so game changing about Apollo? Seems like the same shit to me. Genuinely asking, because I'll switch if it's worth it.
>>719427284Is it much better than steam link? I haven't used remote play that much to be honest.
>>719431071Rip too bad>>719431772I played about 2-3 hours of kingdom hearts and my battery dropped from 100 to like 90. That's not bad at all. Seems like 8-10 hours depending on what you play
>>719435215Seems like there are lots of YouTube channels about it but if you want to get immediate help they have a discord. However that place is very dead and you're most likely getting ignored
>>719425251>>719425512erm...cock?
>>719425251>Do you have a steam deck yet?I would like one but I'm concerned the hardware might be a little dated by 2025 standards. I've been hoping for a Steam Deck 2 with updated hardware for upgraded performance, preferably with a GPU that can run FSR4.
>>719425251Yes. I hate gaming laptops and it's a good alternative.
>>719435463Basically a tranny contributor got mad at the sunshine main dev for not approving some of his PRs with shit code and ideas, and then proceeded to crash out and create it's own fork
